I spend a lot of time doing the following:

1) Pressing the clear meters to get rid of overload 'reds'

2) switching the automation off ( dunno why , it bugs me to start with it on!)

Does anyone else do this too?

I'm really digging it! So are the bands I'm working with...

This isn't a big deal for me. Automation doesn't do anything until there's something actually written. And it's easy enuf to hit all+off with your thumb and ring finger.

If you're hitting the clr-clips button excessively, it might be time to take a look at the way you're setting up levels. The most I ever have to hit that button is when tracking vocals - see red light, attenuate mic pre - hit clear button - no more red lights.

Yup

"And, yes, that rubber paint is awful! It keeps peeling off."

"It's definitely a great interface to get work done on, but does it have to look and feel so cheezy? I've had 4 track cassette recorders that looked more impressive and would survive a fall from a 3rd story window."

"wouldn't mind paying a few more grand for a bigger master section:"
- match the weight of the console to a 1978 chevy impala with leather interior- rip the leather out of the impala and use it to make a nice armrest - brighter lights and more colors (to justify our higher studio rates to the clients)
Did I miss anything?
Most clients think it looks cheaper than my HUI...!!!
Phillipe Stark makeover anyone..??....

You might be stuck with that problem then.
Have you tried switching to metering post fader in preferences?

Personally, I use soft limit only as a "save your ass" precaution, not to push more level to "tape". But if it's giving you what you want, keep doing it.

One more thing: the AD8000 f****** rocks!

I'm new to this topic so I may be speaking out of turn, but If people want more plugin automation but redesignong ProControl is too expensive, why (and I'm going to show my design illiteracy here) make a 'expansion pack' that is simply a matrix of touch rotary knobs with LED labels under it? so, the user can have the choice of using standard procontrol interface, or the unpgraded pack, that has enough knobs to access all parameters in one page?.

Thanks for your feedback,
